Send() getting garbled


Recommended Posts

I'm trying to use Send() to send text to another application. I tried controlsend and controlsetteext, but they just wont work at all. Send() is communicating, but not properly. Ex. if $blah = "Conner Romp" and I do Send($blah), the text sent to the app would turn out as "oR nnecrpom". Just an example, may not be exact sequence of lettering...but it isn't exactly reversed. Has anyone ever seen this?

Are there characters in the string that would trigger metakeys (i.e. !, +, ^, #)? If so, use ControlSend() with the "raw flag" set.
